Bacon-and-Egg Muffin Cups

Nonstick cooking spray
6 slices bacon
6 slices bread
6 eggs
1 cup shredded cheese
Salt, to taste

Preheat oven to 420 degrees. Spray a 6-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. Fry bacon in a greased skillet for 5 minutes, or until partially cooked, then transfer to a paper towel to drain.

Cut a 4-inch circle in each piece of bread using a cookie cutter or a glass. Put a circle of bread into each muffin cup, and mold into a cup shape.

Curl a slice of bacon around the outside of each mold between the bread and the pan. Divide cheese among the wells of bread, then crack an egg into each.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove each muffin carefully, and let cool. Add salt to taste. Serves 6.
